James Paxton - S - Mariners

James Paxton (forearm) is expected to throw his first bullpen session of the spring on Tuesday.

Paxton landed awkwardly on both of his arms during one of the first workouts of camp and has been taking it easy for the past couple of weeks. The left-hander is expected to be 100 percent by the beginning of the 2015 regular season. He owns a shiny 2.66 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 80/36 K/BB ratio in 98 career major league innings.

Adam Wainwright - S - Cardinals

Adam Wainwright (abdomen) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Monday in Cardinals camp.

Wainwright suffered an abdominal strain last week while placing a 45 lb. weight back on a rack at the Cardinals' spring training complex. He expects to make his Grapefruit League debut by mid-March and is still a possibility for the club's Opening Night start at Wrigley Field. The abdominal discomfort doesn't really affect his throwing motion.

Michael Taylor - OF - Nationals

Michael Taylor has complained of some minor neck discomfort.

Taylor described it as a "twinge," but he was able to work out Sunday and should be a full participant in drills and games this week. "Anytime that happens, especially early in the spring, we make sure that we take it easy on him," manager Matt Williams said Monday. "He is full go. He is ready to play." The 23-year-old should be busy this spring in the Grapefruit League with Jayson Werth recovering from shoulder surgery.

Victor Martinez - 1B - Tigers

Victor Martinez (knee) has arrived at Tigers camp.

And he's expected to go through his first spring workout Monday morning. Martinez needed surgery on February 10 to repair the medial meniscus in his left knee and probably won't get into Grapefruit League games for at least two weeks. The veteran designated hitter is not certain to be ready for the opening of the 2015 regular season, though the Tigers are saying for now that he will be a go.

Joel Hanrahan - R - Tigers

Joel Hanrahan (elbow) will visit a specialist in Texas on Tuesday.

Hanrahan acknowledged last week that his arm hasn't felt right since he arrived at Tigers camp in mid-February. He missed the entire 2014 season and the 33-year-old right-hander can probably be ruled out for a 2015 Opening Day bullpen spot. Hanrahan underwent Tommy John elbow surgery nearly two years ago.

Oswaldo Arcia - OF - Twins

Oswaldo Arcia was sent home early from Twins camp on Monday.

Arcia is battling a mild illness that seems to be making its way around the Twins' complex. It's not a big deal. The 23-year-old outfielder will be looking to take another big step forward in 2015 after batting .231/.300/.452 with 20 home runs in 103 games last season.

Randal Grichuk - OF - Cardinals

Randal Grichuk (back) resumed workouts Monday.

Grichuk took it easy this weekend due to some mild lower back soreness and might be held out of the Cardinals' first few Grapefruit League games, but the discomfort doesn't seem like a huge concern. Grichuk is due to open the 2015 season in a backup role behind starting outfielders Matt Holliday, Jon Jay, and Jason Heyward.

Justin Verlander - S - Tigers

Justin Verlander has impressed the Tigers coaching staff in his recent side sessions.

Verlander threw live batting practice to hitters on a backfield Sunday in Lakeland, Florida and apparently looked sharp. "That's the best I've seen Ver stuff-wise, off the mound, since I've gotten this job," manager Brad Ausmus told reporters. "It's exactly what we wanted." The veteran right-hander is trying to bounce back in a big way after posting a disappointing 4.54 ERA in 206 innings last season.
